Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Obsessive-compulsive disorders are chronic anxiety-based conditions that can lead to significant levels of distress from unwanted and irrational ways of thinking and interference in your ability to carry out day to day life. A person with OCD will experience repetitive, obsessive, unwanted, and sometimes unpleasant thoughts, images, and urges entering their mind. Followed by behaviours, compulsions, or a rehearsed mental act, to relieve the anxiety or distress caused.

Whilst people are aware their way of thinking is irrational. The drive to carry out the compulsions to alleviate anxiety symptoms is habitual.

Solution focused hypnotherapy can help you understand and break down negative cycles of thinking. Understand how our mind creates these behaviours, habits, and compulsions, and how we can break down negative cycles of action to support you to take control and move towards living your preferred future.

“I now have massive insight into how my mind works which has supported me to take control, recognise and analyse my thoughts, and having coping mechanisms which has further improved my self-confidence.”
